Could be corrupt or uninstalled drivers. Was this a fresh install after downloading too much pr0n?
Also you can go to tools/internet options/connections/lan settings and make sure the automatically detect settings is checked

Or go to start/run/type in cmd ........... then type in ipconfig /release then type in ipconfig /renew

then while you're still in cmd, type in ping (laptop name) see if it gives you an IP address.

it gave me options

click start in the bottom left hand corner, click the connect to go to show all connections....disable the wireless connections by right clicking on them and clicking disable. Make sure the Local area connection is enabled. Move the cursor over the local area connection, right click and hit status and tell us what it says

or hit "repair"

has this laptop been used on this router before? if no i say drivers
